Notes |
- From the Bourbon News-Mirror, Thursday, September 30, 1909--------- Mrs. Elizabeth (McWhorter) Cooper (RIN 1254), of Tippecanoe, died last Tuesday morning at five o'clock, quite unexpectedly, heart trouble being the cause. She felt well the day before and no warning was had of her impending dissolution until just a few moments before death. Mrs Cooper was born in Franklin County, Ind., near Connersville, August 27, 1833, and came to Marshall county in the fall of 1849. She had resided here ever since, and 19 years ago she moved to Tippecanoe with her husband (Solomon Cooper, RIN 1259) who died 12 years ago. To the married life ten children were born. The funeral is to be held today at 1 o'clock at the home, taken to Summitt Chapel and the remains buried there. Mrs Cooper was 76 years, 1 month, and 1 day of age when she died.
Elizabeth may have had another husband, before or after, named Mr. Ladd. [1]
